If he's good at GIS he could use digital line graphs.  I've not had any trouble with the standard or optional formats although the new SDTS format gives me trouble in Arc/Info.  I can't speak to the accuracy or completeness of the data.  Of course if he wants to stitch together 1:24K's, it's more work than stitching together 1:100K's (which for CT, RI, and MA wouldn't be fun after a while either).

I have a patron looking for Electrical Transmission/High Tension Wire
maps for New England…any help appreciated. We don’t have much of the way
of coverage for this out here in Arizona so I thought I ‘d seek help
from afar J

Maps or data works..any help greatly appreciated…

Frank,

Just to make things easier on you...I'm looking specifically for
electric transmission/high tension above-ground wires in the New
England area only, really just Mass, Connecticut and Rhode Island.
Hopefully that will make it easier to find? Let me know if I can
provide you with any more information.

Thanks!
